Poll shows Dutch voters 2-1 against aid for Italy
Associated Press, 08.08.11, 10:24 AM EDT

AMSTERDAM -- A poll published in the Netherlands says Dutch voters are against contributing additional money to Europe's proposed stabilization fund by a 2-1 margin.

The poll asked the question "Do you think the European fund should be expanded so that Spain and Italy are less vulnerable to attack?" The question referred to new commitments to the European Financial Stability Facility, or EFSF, and "attack" by investors selling Italian and Spain bonds due to increasing concerns over their risk of default.


The poll published Monday by the prominent pollster Maurice de Hond had 55 percent saying no, 27 percent saying yes, and 18 percent undecided.

The Dutch economy has weathered the global slowdown since 2008 relatively well, and nationalist sentiment is running high.
